The submarine's searchlight was like an explorer's torch, weak but resolute in slicing through the dark sea water.

As the submarine slowly advanced, those faint beams of light became increasingly clear under the surveillance of the camera.

The crew members' breaths were almost audible, and the tense atmosphere permeated the small interior of the submarine.

When the submarine finally approached that shadow, everyone was stunned.

The footage returned by the camera showed that it was not some strange rock on the seabed, nor was it some unknown marine creature.

It was the corpse of an oceanic alien!

It lay quietly on the seabed, its limbs gently swaying with the weak currents, as if silently telling a tale.

Most shockingly, the appearance of this corpse was identical to that of the deep-sea diver detained at the Shanghai-Hong Kong Base.

They remembered the bulging eyes of that deep-sea diver and the inexplicable features on his body.

Now, the same characteristics appeared on the corpse before them, evoking a sense of fear.

The crew exchanged glances, unsure of what to do.

The highest Commander's voice broke the silence: "All personnel, stay alert, and continue forward."

The submarine's engine roared back to life, but this time, no one could ignore the scene behind the corpse.

As the submarine advanced, more corpses appeared on the camera.

They appeared like an army asleep on the seabed, densely packed, countless deep-sea diver remains filling their view.

These corpses were arranged with unusual order, resembling a vast graveyard, each one maintaining the same posture, as if waiting for something.

The crew's hearts raced wildly, fear rushing like a chill from their spines to the tops of their heads.

"What is this place?" One crew member murmured.

"Is this… their graveyard?" Another crew member's voice trembled through the headset.

The highest Commander was silent for a moment, then issued an order.

"Record these coordinates, we must conduct a thorough investigation of this area, and remain in maximum alert, as we don't know what else might be hiding here."

The submarine slowly traversed this desolate seabed graveyard, each crew member dealing with the terrifying scene in their own way.

They knew that this expedition might rewrite humanity's understanding of the deep sea, but at the same time, it might also become the start of an unforgettable nightmare.

The tension inside the submarine reached its peak, the crew members' faces pale, their eyes filled with fear.

The deep-sea pressure and the graveyard of corpses before them pushed their psychological defenses to the brink of collapse.

Some crew members began to tremble slightly, others closed their eyes tightly, gripping the handrails firmly, seeking a sliver of security.

"Team member M, unstable vital signs, heartbeat too fast."

The medical officer's voice came through the communicator as he hurriedly adjusted the medical equipment, trying to stabilize the team member's vital signs.

"Team member R, no vital signs!"

Another crew member's voice carried despair; his companion had completely lost signs of life in this deep-sea terror.

Despite this, the highest Commander maintained a calm demeanor, but could not hide a trace of sadness in his eyes.

He was well aware that every deep-sea exploration was filled with unknowns and dangers, but he didn't expect to encounter such a tragic scene here.

The highest Commander's voice came through the headset, offering the crew a glimmer of hope.

"All crew members, immediately check your equipment, ensure the life support systems are functioning correctly, we cannot stop here, the appearance of these deep-sea diver corpses means we've reached the range of their species, this mission, we either succeed or perish!"

The crew, though still apprehensive, mechanically conducted checks under the order.

They knew that any small mistake could lead to the loss of life.

"Team member K, life support system abnormal, attempting repair."

Team member K's voice was weak, his hands trembling, yet he persisted, unwilling to give up the last shred of hope.

The highest Commander stared intently at the monitor ahead, as if a secret lay hidden in the deep-sea darkness, one he must uncover.

"Continue the descent, we must find the answer."

The highest Commander's voice remained steadfast, yet his heart and eyes were filled with conflict.

He was responsible for these crew members, but also for humanity's future; he couldn't let this expedition sacrifice in vain.

The submarine's engine roared to life once more as it continued its descent into deeper oceanic realms.

The surrounding darkness intensified as if an invisible giant hand was trying to devour them.

The crew members clutched their seats tightly, their eyes fixed on their respective monitors, praying for a safe descent.

The submarine's depth gauge continued to climb slowly, nineteen thousand meters, twenty thousand meters... Each increment in depth accompanied the crew's accelerated heartbeats.

The highest Commander knew they were entering an entirely new realm, one that would become a new chapter in the history of human exploration.

But he also understood that this chapter might be stained with blood.

Jiang Xiao, Shi Shi, and Wang Dayong stood silently to the side.

Though their hearts were heavy, this was indeed a necessary sacrifice to welcome the dawn...

Twenty-five thousand meters!

The submarine's alarm system suddenly blared intensely, the piercing alarms reverberating within the cramped space, red light spilling through the submarine's interior like blood.
